Years ago, I had a Jetta and while stopped at a red light someone rear ended me. Ficked the trunk up and the muffler was dragging on the ground. Insurance couldn’t pay for the entire thing to be fixed but I hella needed the muffler to not drag on the street so I went to a shop to see what they could do. I just wanted a quote. They instead took the liberty of tack welding it to the frame, then tried to charge $300 for it. It took less than 10 minutes of time and used no parts. Told them I wouldn’t pay more than $25 for that; I may not know cars, but I know how easy (and shitty) a tack weld is.
